[ Featuring Bobby Darin, Johnny Mercer ]
I'm a lonesome polecat, lonesome, sad and blue
'Cause I ain't got no feminine polecat
Vowin' to be true
Can't make no vow to a herd of cows
I'm a mean old hound dog, bayin' at the moon
'Cause I ain't got no lady friend hound dog
Here to hear my tune
A man can't sleep when he sleeps with sheep
I'm a little old hoot owl hootin' in the trees
'Cause I ain't got no little gal owl fowl
Here to shoot the breeze
Can't shoot no breeze with a bunch of trees
Why can't I lose these lonesome polecat blues?
